messages. However, when acting as the proxy, the system performs the host portion of the IGMP
task as follows:
When it is queried, the system will send group membership reports to the group.
When one of the hosts joins a multicast address group to which none of other hosts belong, the
system will send unsolicited group membership reports to that group.
When the last of hosts in a particular multicast group leaves the group, the system will send a
leave group membership report to the routers group.

Configuring Other Routers on Your LAN
It is essential that all IP packets for devices that are not on the local LAN can be passed to the
Router, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve this, the
local LAN must be configured to use the Router as the default route or default gateway.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the Router. This router requires
that the default route is the Router itself. Typically, routers have a special entry for the default route.
It should be configured as follows.
Destination:
Normally 0.0.0.0 but check your router documentation.
Subnet Mask:
Normally 0.0.0.0 but check your router documentation.
Gateway:
The IP Address of the Router.
Other Routers on the Local LAN
60
Chapter 4:Web Configuration
Other routers on the local LAN must use the Router’s Local Router as the Default Route. The entries
will be the same as the Router’s local router, with the exception of the Gateway IP Address.
For a router with a direct connection to the Router’s local Router, the Gateway IP Address is
the address of the Router’s local router.
For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the Router’s local
router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate router.
Example – Static Route
Here provides you an example of Static Route.
For the Router’s Routing Table
For the LAN shown above, with 2 routers and 3 LAN segments, the Router requires to add 2 static
routes as follows:

Virtual Servers-Port Forwarding
The Router implements NAT to let your entire local network appear as a single machine to the
Internet. The typical situation is that you have local servers for different services and you want to
make them publicly accessible. With NAT applied, it will translate the internal IP addresses of these
servers to a single IP address that is unique on the Internet. NAT function not only eliminates the
need for multiple public IP addresses but also provides a measure of security for your LAN.
When the router receives an incoming IP packet requesting for access to your local server, the
router will recognize the service type according to the port number in this packet (e.g., port 80
indicates HTTP service and port 21 indicates FTP service). By specifying the port number, you tell
the router which service should be forwarded to the local IP address you specify.
After you setting the virtual server you should modify the filter rule whichever port and service you
set on virtual server. Because the firewall has protect the route by filter rule so that you should
update the filter rule after you set up virtual server.
Virtual Server allows you to make servers on your LAN accessible to Internet users. Normally,
Internet users would not be able to access a server on your LAN because:
Your server does not have a valid external IP Address.
Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this device.
The Virtual Server feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to connect to your
servers, as illustrated below:
62
Chapter 4:Web Configuration
IP Address seen by Internet Users
Please note that, in the above picture, both Internet users are connecting to the same IP address, but
using different protocols.
To Internet users, all virtual servers on your LAN have the same IP Address. This IP Address is
allocated by your ISP. This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for
Internet users to connect to your Servers. However, you can use Dynamic DNS feature to allow
users to connect to your virtual servers by using a URL, instead of an IP address.
To set a virtual server, please open the
Virtual Servers item from the Advanced
Setup - NAT menu.

host. And, if you choose SUBNET, the boxes
of IP and Subnet will appear for you to fill in
the IP address and subnet mask for the
specific host as the start point.
Forwarded to Internet Host IP Address:
Type in the address for the host used as the
place that information will be forwarded.
IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In
other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the router redirects the
external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).
After adding a new virtual server, click
Apply.
The following screen will be shown to
display the status for new ones.
If you do not want the new server that you
added, please check the Delete box of that
one and click the Delete button to discard it.
Or if you want to add another one again,
click Add to add a new one.
Connecting to the Virtual Servers
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers. They must use the
Internet IP Address (the IP Address allocated to you by your ISP.) For example,
Http://203.70.212.52
Ftp://203.70.212.52
It is more convenient if you are using a Fixed IP Address from your ISP, rather than Dynamic.
However, you can use the Dynamic DNS feature to allow users to connect to your Virtual Server
through a URL, rather than an IP Address.
Virtual Servers-Port Triggering
When the router detects outbound traffic on
a specific port, it will set up the port
forwarding rules temporarily on the port
ranges that you specify to allow inbound
traffic. It is supposed to increase the support

Firewall – IP Filtering
The firewall is a software that interrupts the data between the Internet and your computer. It is the
TCP/IP equivalent of a security gate at the entrance to your company. All data must pass through it,
and the firewall (functions as a security guard) will allow only authorized data to be passed into the
LAN.
What the firewall can do? It can:
deny or permit any packet from passing through explicitly
distinguish between various interfaces and match on the following fields:
source and destination IP address
port
To keep track of the performance of IP Filter, a logging device is used which supports logging of the
TCP/UDP and IP packet headers and the first 129 bytes of the packet (including headers) when a
packet is successfully passed through, a packet is blocked from passing through and it matches a
rule setup to look for suspicious packets
Filtering by IP address
An example for firewall setup:
This picture is the most common and easiest way to employ the firewall. Basically, you can install a
packet-filtering router at the Internet gateway and then configures the filter rule in the router to block
or filter protocols and addresses. The systems behind the router usually have a direct access to the
Internet, however some dangerous services such as NIS and NFS are usually blocked.
For the security of your router, set the firewall is an important issue.

Public IP Address, the client PCs should renew IP addresses.
The PC on the LAN cannot access the Web page of the ADSL Router.
Check that your PC is on the same subnet with the ADSL Router.
The virtual server can’t be access after setting virtual server.
Check the filter rule of the port that virtual server service setting for example, the virtual server
service set FTP 21 you need update the filter rule of the ftp 21 Direction setting: Choose filter the
packets that incoming action (In Bound) are Allow on the interface.
Problems with WAN
You cannot access the Internet.
Check the physical connection between the ADSL Router and the LAN.
If the LAN LED on the front panel is off or keeps blinking, there may be problem on the cable
connecting to the ADSL Router.
At the DOS prompt, ping the IP address of the ADSL Router, e.g, ping 192.168.1.1. If the
following response occurs:
Relay from 192.168.1.1 bytes=32 time=100ms TTL=253
Then the connection between the ADSL Router and the network is OK.
If you get a failed ping with the response of:
Request time out
Then the connection is fail. Check the cable between the ADSL Router and the network.
Check the DNS setting of the ADSL Router.
At the DOS prompt, ping the IP address of the DNS provided by your ISP. For example, if your
DNS IP is 168.95.1.1, then ping 168.95.1.1. If the following response occurs:
Relay from 168.95.1.1 bytes=32 time=100ms TTL=253
Then the connection to the DNS is OK.

Chapter 5:Troubleshooting
If you get a failed ping with the response of:
Request time out
Then the DNS is not reachable. Check your DNS setting on the ADSL Router.
Problems with Upgrading
The following lists the error messages that you may see during upgrading and the action to take.
Error: All the ADSL LEDs light up and cannot light off as usual.
Possible cause: When users execute firmware upgrade and save settings to the router, the
power for the router is lost for some unknown reasons, the normal web page for the router
might be damaged. After power on your router, the LEDs might not work normally.
Action: Use the browser to connect to the router for executing image upgrade.
Error Message: Image uploading failed. The selected file contains an illegal image.
Possible cause: The firmware file format is invalid.
Action: Check the file format is correct, otherwise download a firmware file with correct
format.
Error Message: Image uploading failed. The system is out of memory.
Possible cause: It may be caused by the lack of memory.
Action: Reboot your ADSL Router and perform the upgrade task again.
Error Message: Image uploading failed. No image file was selected.
Possible cause: You did not select a file correctly.
Action: Download a compatible firmware from the web.

ARP (Address Resolution Protocol )
ARP is a TCP/IP protocol for mapping an IP address to a physical machine address that is
recognized in the local network, such as an Ethernet address.
A host wishing to obtain a physical address broadcasts an ARP request onto the TCP/IP
network. The host on the network that has the IP address in the request then replies with
its physical hardware address.
Inverse ARP (In-ARP), on the other hand, is used by a host to discover its IP address. In
this case, the host broadcasts its physical address and a RARP server replies with the host's
IP address.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
When operates as a DHCP server, the ADSL Router assign IP addresses to the client PCs on
the LAN. The client PCs “leases” these Private IP addresses for a user-defined amount of
time. After the lease time expires, the private IP address is made available for assigning to
other network devices.
The DHCP IP address can be a single, fixed public IP address, an ISP assigned public IP
address, or a private IP address.
If you enable DHCP server on a private IP address, a public IP address will have to be
assigned to the NAT IP address, and NAT has to be enabled so that the DHCP IP address
can be translated into a public IP address. By this, the client PCs are able to access the
Internet.
LAN (Local Area Network) & WAN (Wide Area Network)
A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or
floor of a building. A WAN, on the other hand, is an outside connection to another network
or the Internet.
The Ethernet side of the ADSL Router is called the LAN port. It is a twisted-pair Ethernet
10Base-T interface. A hub can be connected to the LAN port. More than one computers,
such as server or printer, can be connected through this hub to the ADSL Router and
composes a LAN.
The DSL port of the ADSL Router composes the WAN interface, which supports PPP or RFC
1483 connecting to another remote DSL device.
NAT (Network Address Translation) IP Address
NAT is an Internet standard that translates a private IP within one network to a public IP
address, either a static or dynamic one. NAT provides a type of firewall by hiding internal IP
addresses. It also enables a company to use more internal IP addresses.
81
Chapter 6: Glossary
If the IP addresses given by your ISP are not enough for each PC on the LAN and the ADSL
Router, you need to use NAT. With NAT, you make up a private IP network for the LAN and
assign an IP address from that network to each PC. One of some public addresses is
configured and mapped to a private workstation address when accesses are made through
the gateway to a public network.
For example, the ADSL Router is assigned with the public IP address of 168.111.2.1. With
NAT enabled, it creates a Virtual LAN. Each PC on the Virtual LAN is assigned with a private
IP address with default value of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.2.254. These PCs are not
accessible by the outside world but they can communicate with the outside world through
the public IP 168.111.2.1.
Private IP Address
Private IP addresses are also LAN IP addresses, but are considered “illegal” IP addresses to
the Internet. They are private to an enterprise while still permitting full network layer
connectivity between all hosts inside an enterprise as well as all public hosts of different
enterprises.
The ADSL Router uses private IP addresses by assigning them to the LAN that cannot be
directly accessed by the Internet or remote server. To access the Internet, private network
should have an agent to translate the private IP address to public IP address.
Public IP Address
Public IP addresses are LAN IP addresses that can be considered “legal” for the Internet,
because they can be recognized and accessed by any device on the other side of the DSL
connection. In most cases they are allocated by your ISP.
If you are given a range of fixed IP addresses, then one can be assigned to the router and
the others to network devices on the LAN, such as computer workstations, ftp servers, and
web servers.
PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit)
A PVC is a logical point-to-point circuit between customer sites. PVCs are low-delay circuits
because routing decisions do not need to be made along the way. Permanent means that
the circuit is preprogrammed by the carrier as a path through the network. It does not
need to be set up or turned down for each session.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol)
RIP is a routing protocol that uses the distance-vector routing algorithms to calculate leasthops routes to a destination. It is used on the Internet and is common in the NetWare
environment. It exchanges routing information with other routers. It includes V1, V2 and
V1&V2, which controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets over Ethernet.
UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
UDP is a connectionless transport service that dispenses with the reliability services
provided by TCP. UDP gives applications a direct interface with IP and the ability to address
a particular application process running on a host via a port number without setting up a
connection session.
Virtual Server
You can designate virtual servers, e.g., a FTP, web, telnet or mail server, on your local
network and make them accessible to the outside world. A virtual server means that it is
not a dedicated server -- that is, the entire computer is not dedicated to running on the

public network but in the private network.
VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) & VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier)
A VPI is a 8-bit field while VCI is a 16-bit field in the ATM cell header. A VPI identifies a link
formed by a virtual path and a VCI identifies a channel within a virtual path. In this way,
the cells belonging to the same connection can be distinguished. A unique and separate
VPI/VCI identifier is assigned in advance to indicate which type of cell is following,
unassigned cells, physical layer OAM cells, metasignaling channel or a generic broadcast
signaling channel. Your ISP should supply you with the values.
